SUPER TOMATO SANDWICHES



Super Tomato Sandwiches image

I never could resist a tomato sandwich. It is the combination of mayonnaise, tomatoes and bread that is so compelling. I call these MLTs: mayonnaise, lettuce and tomatoes. I make a spicy mayo with chipotle adobo (my son's favorite), and an herbal mayo with tarragon (my favorite). Play around with aioli and other flavored mayonnaises. Use whole grain bread and toast it lightly so that it doesn't get soggy. The tomatoes should overlap in a thick layer.

Time 5m

Yield 1 sandwich

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 tablespoon adobe or tarragon mayonnaise (see tip)
2 slices whole wheat or mixed grains sandwich bread, lightly toasted
1 large or 2 medium tomatoes, sliced
Salt and pepper, if desired (don't salt if you are not eating right away because the tomatoes will release too much juice)
1/4 medium avocado, thinly sliced
Lettuce, arugula or spring greens
Fresh basil leaves, if desired

Steps:

  • Spread mayonnaise on both slices of the lightly toasted bread. Arrange tomato slices in a thick overlapping layer on top of the bottom slice. Sprinkle with salt, pepper and basil if desired (do not salt if not eating right away).
  • Place a layer of thin avocado slices on top of the tomatoes and top with lettuce leaves and the top slice of bread. Press down firmly and cut the sandwich in half. You can wrap and transport the sandwich, as the toasted bread will resist becoming soggy for a few hours.
